Workstation 10 doesnt see PCMCIA card to attach

In a running VM, linux guest windows host, my PCMCIA card doesnt show up as a local device that I can give control over to the guest.

I has worked in past versions, 8 and IIRC 9 too.

Any ideas?

thanks

To my knowledge PCMCIA has never been listed in Virtual Machine Features and Specifications in any version.

That said there are lots of different PCMCIA devices and if whatever you're using shows to the Host OS as a USB Device then that would probably be available to the Guest as USB but not as a PCMCIA device.

Have a look at: Virtual Machine Features and Specifications
